The 2016 VRMA National Conference is taking place in Phoenix (Chandler), Arizona, from October 16 to 19. This event, put together by the Vacation Rental Managers Association (to which my company Fashion Fox and thus this blog RentalScaleup belong) is the world’s biggest conference for vacation rental owners and and property managers.
If you are attending this, let’s meet up! I will be on the Booking.com booth, as I’ve been helping them develop their Homes & Apartments offering for the last couple of months. I may also be speaking at the conference, just as I did at the 2016 VRMA conference in Barcelona, but this is till not confirmed.
